Joost now has a Beta that is live for Intel-based Macs.  I’m currently on a PowerPC system, so I’m out of luck for the time being (but that shall change next week…ha ha!) so my fellow hold-outs can now officially be sad….but those of you with Intel Inside and a Joost Beta account can click here to get going.

If you don’t have a Joost Beta account then you can visit the official site to get on the waiting list.  The entire Joost project is very interesting to me, and I can’t wait to give it a spin.
